On February 24, 2020, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Delcath Systems, Inc. (the “Company”) approved bonus payments to the Company’s named executive officers (each, an “NEO”) for the year ended December 31, 2019. This bonus compensation information was not included in the Summary Compensation Table included in (i) the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-235904), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on January 13, 2020, as amended on February 7, 2020 (as amended, the “February Registration Statement”), and (ii) the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-236100), filed with the SEC on January 27, 2020, (together with the February Registration Statement, the “Registration Statements”), because the amount of the bonuses had not been determined at the time of filing of each the Registration Statement. In accordance with Item 5.02(f), the table below updates the Bonus and Total columns in the Summary Compensation Table for the year ended December 31, 2019 for the NEOs previously set forth in the Registration Statements. No other amounts have changed.

For 2019, Dr. Simpson was paid $393,703, Ms. Keck was paid $274,875 and Mr. Purpura was paid $284,042. For 2018, Dr. Simpson was paid $172,142, Ms. Keck was paid $116,500 and Mr. Purpura was paid $135,669. The balance of their salaries has been accrued.

 

(2)

For 2018, all bonus amounts have been accrued and not yet paid. For 2019, each NEO was awarded a bonus related to the Private Placements.  

 

(3)

Due to the lack of available shares for issuance under the Company’s 2009 Stock Incentive Plan, the Board of Directors did not grant any long-term equity awards to our named executive officers in 2018 which in no way should create any negative inference concerning the Compensation Committee’s evaluation of their performance.
